Bug Description
The gnome-pm in the upcoming gnome release no longer supports shutdown() and reboot(). This is now managed by consolekit. I added a bzr diff that uses the ConsoleKit System service to shutdown and reboot.
Not sure how consolekit can be accessed differently (pam/per user daemon) haven't digged into that a lot.
Cheers
Martin

Ok, running this basically just locks up my machine and doesn't reboot on Jaunty. Did you test this?

I use it every day since I posted this.
Versions:
ck: 0.3.0
g-p-m: 2.26.1
kernel: 2.6.29
do: 0.8.1.3 + the above patches
I do not use ubuntu though and from what I've seen there are various ways to use ck ( system daemon, user daemon, pam etc). But any of them seem unlikely to cause lockups.
When I get the time I can test it on Fedora (VM) and see what happens...

Okay I just tested this in my VM (most recent Fedora 11 RC). Works just fine. Not a lot of code in the patch so the cause seems to be either ubuntu or ck related.

I've had time to test this on both Intrepid and Jaunty, and it works flawlessly on both.

Thanks for the patch Martin. I'll take a look and try to get this in by 0.8.2.
